Product Substitution Policy
SPS Pros reserves the right to substitute comparable product part numbers that maintain the same specifications and work for the same products as the one ordered.
For example: 005048829, 005048797, 005049238, and 005049542 are all the same 1TB SATA drive from EMC, generically known as CX-SA07-010. When a specific part number is low on stock or out of stock, we may substitute the comparable part number that falls under the same generic part number.
Scenario: When a customer orders quantity 5 of part number 005049542, we may ship out quantity 5 of part number 005049238; as they are identical hardware and falls under the same generic part number.
